Denny won the interview with this line: "Hey man, a piece of wheat growing in the field has just as much right to be alive as a rabbit."

Thanks for sharing this! I'm a huge Friends fan but what a weird time for the band...

Yeah, weird times indeed...reminds me of what Dennis Dragon once told me: on DD's first tour with the Boys (the Maharishi tour that year), DD mentioned he was a vegetarian. DW's response was to shove a hamburger in his face. :)

Gotta be a Manson saying, right? This is from around that time. It reeks of that kind of hippie jingoism.

Dennis dragon told me that he was on the April 1968 tour. He recalled it very well -especially hanging out with Neil Young and his brother Doug. So the Maharishi tour was his second tour
